Hello, so im making this thread to hear everyone's opinions on if there will be a Minecon cape for this "Minecon Earth 2017"

I have a couple of theories about this.

  • The codes for capes will be shipped out with the merch you can buy from the online store.

  • They will give them away on the live stream.

  • You will only be able to get them if you attend a viewing party.


These are just a few of the things i have heard about, be sure to leave your thoughts down bellow.

High performance, consistent uptime and fast support. Minecraft hosting that just works.

Well no nodes in the merch. Who knows there could still be some code on the back of the sheep I bought. I’m attending a viewing thing tommorow so hopefully they’ll hand out capes there.

I believe this year will be a no cape year. Sad story but Microsoft wants to prevent account being sold, so why would they encourage it by adding value to an account by selling or giving away capes?
I think the cape for next year will definitely be a shulker.
But as a matter of now, sadly there won't be such thing as a Minecon 2017 cape.
Have a great day and enjoy the show!

"If we can't do capes in a cool way, there will not be capes." ~ Jeb 2017

Shipping them with merch isn't really a 'cool way'... Just giving them away at the live stream isn't that 'cool' either (and they probably don't want to 'waste' the 90 mins (?) of livestream time with giveaway stuff).

And except in the US there are basically no official viewing parties (and they'd probably only give away codes at these official events).

I theorize there is a way to buy a code for a cape in a local video game store near you.

1. What does Microsoft have to do with Minecraft: Java Edition? Microsoft does not care about it, they clearly renamed it to Java Edition so it's not the main edition. If Microsoft would care anything about Minecraft: Java Edition they would have added a marketplace just like on normal Minecraft.
2. If they really wanted to stop account trading they would have put it into the EULA. And don't say "they have put in that you can't distribute it" I am no way a lawyer, but I have looked it up, and selling and buying doesn't mean distributing. In this case, Ebay would be distributing as well. I might be wrong, but this is what I've seen online.
